I couldnt even get past round 4 >on Endless. -.- I couldn't even do silver in MoP, the ilvl scaling meant I went from zero problems with mana to just plain zero mana. Absolutely impossible to get past bronze as a healer, I hope the scaling has been improved this time out. >I shine in raids on three classes. But here I have to get past a part >of the game that has NOTHING to do with dungeons or raids! And I suck >at Proving Grounds... Well if you've got a guild to raid with, you don't need it anyway, you've got a whole guild full of people to group with and you'll be outgearing heroics in no time :-) It's people like me who really need it, since group finder is my endgame...
